How much was your wedding dress ?

Connie, on May 6, 2019 at 8:25 PM Posted in Wedding Attire 0 67
Hello , I was just wondering what is a reasonable price for a wedding dress ? Or what’s the average price ? I don’t want to go over the top ... hoping some of you feel comfortable telling me how much your dress cost Smiley smile

thank you.

    Mine was $998, I got it at an off the rack store so I took it home that day. I wanted to stay under $1,000 though. I don't know what the average is but I know the cheapest dress I saw was $550 and most expensive was $2,500 so I'm thinking that's pretty average.

    My dress was around $3k but I paid an extra $500 to modify the neckline so with that and taxes it was closer to $4k.

    First dress is the one I got, and after taxes it was 927. The second was the one I almost bought and it was just under 500.

    Mine was $700something. I'm expecting a couple hundred dollars in alterations as well.

    Definitely stay in your price comfort zone though! You want to love it, but you will only wear it once. You can find all kinds of pretty gowns in all price ranges

    I’m not sure there’s any real average since everyone’s budgets vary so much. My dress was $2k before alterations.

    Ours were $450 each. We got them from a bridal consignment store. Mine was used, and NotFroofy's was a sample.

    “Reasonable” is subjective. You’ll have to set a dress budget that works specifically for you and what you’re willing to spend. What’s “over-the-top” for one bride could be minimal for another.
